TIMOTHY BRESLIN Obituary
Timothy James Breslin was born May 28, 1956, in Boston, and was adopted through Boston Charities. He died Nov. 10, 2017, after a cycling accident in Sahuarita on Oct. 13.
Tim was an avid cyclist, skier, swimmer and hiker, was a PGA-certified golfer, and loved the outdoors and the mountains. His favorite place to live was Telluride, Colorado.
Tim was a conversationalist with strong opinions about many moral and spiritual questions and the Constitution. He loved children, travel and enjoyed the results of his yard work and gardening. He was famous for his barbecuing Cowboy Steaks with his grandchildren.
He had a brief career as a model and auditioned to be in "Tin Cup," one of his favorite golf movies, filmed in Tubac.
He met his wife, Deborah, as mutual brokers in real estate and they formed a real estate team, sharing their love for helping others improve their lives through homeownership. They were a perfect team together in life and forever.
Tim is survived by his wife, Deborah Joan Breslin; brother, Patrick Breslin; sister, Jeannette Roselli; son, Christopher; and grandchildren.
A memorial service will be held at 11 a.m. Saturday, Nov. 18, at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, 17699 S. Camino de las Quintas, Sahuarita.
